President Obama has the unique ability to beguile, entrance, hypnotize, and otherwise render the American people oblivious to any shortcomings he may have. Aided and abetted by friendly media reporters who seem to be under his spell, he continues to seek world favor, and in the process, creates problems for Israel.
He is now treating Israel as a second-class state rather than as the only democratic nation in the troubled Mideast. Israelis will see his ploys for what they are. Unfortunately, however, at a time that violent anti-Semitism rears its ugly head throughout the world, American Jews will continue to fall prey to Obama’s charm, and I believe the overwhelming majority would vote for him again.
The Obama administration is doing irreparable harm to Israel, and the world will be the worse for it. Its recent demands that Israel curtail “natural growth” are arguably contrary to understandings which led Israel to agree to the “roadmap,” as well as to disengage from Gaza.
Israel was created as a Jewish homeland, and the ill-founded acrimony leveled at this small nation has foundations in the same anti-Semitism that brought on the Holocaust. It is an outrage that Israel is the only nation on earth which is so threatened that it must mobilize its entire population in “drills” which practice dealing with incoming rockets.
Americans need to awaken from their hypnotic state and refuse to fall prey to empty rhetoric.
